House music and specifically Afro-house music continues to see an increase in popularity in events and clubs in Nairobi and many African cities.

His name is Jack Rooster and he has been dropping killer house,afrohouse and deep-house mixes consistently on his website . He has also been playing local and international gigs and recently started to co-host a show with Monique on Homeboyz Radio .

Either there has been a new wave of dope African or Afro-house music, or I've just been sleeping on that scene.

Liquideep , another S.A house group also performed in Nairobi last month . This is some of the music I'll be delving into as 2012 opens. It will be interesting to see which direction this music will take and will it become more popular?
